Re: Glee! [merged]

So Ryan Murphy said Blake's character's (TGP2 Winner) name will be Ryder. He also hinted that he'll be sharing scenes with Finn, that we'll be shocked to see who he's dating, and that although he will be in Ohio, he won't be in McKinley the whole time.

Re: Glee! [merged]

I was ready to give up on the show after the last two episodes of the last season. In fact, I bought the third season on DVD and have watched exactly one episode.

But I'm glad I decided to give it another chance. Kate Hudson was great, and although I wouldn't watch the show just for the new characters, I don't hate them either (except Kitty, and I think we're supposed to hate her). And thankfully, Kurt wallowing in misery was kept to a minimum. That was the main reason why I was thinking of bailing: I didn't want to watch yet another season of Kurt worrying that he might not be going to New York.

I've pretty much had to give up any hope of ever seeing Kurt and Blaine as an actual couple with actual PDA, but then if that's the worst thing I have to put up with this fall I should count myself lucky.

Re: Glee! [merged]

The good: The new girl can sing, and so can the new guy (i'm bad with names, so forgive me). The last scene, set to "Chasing Pavements". Seeing Unique in all her glory. Rory is gone - he was not magically delicious.

The bad: Jesus, I want to kick that cheerleader in the taco so badly. That poor lunch lady got dumped on worse than Coach Bieste ever did. Rachael is going to sleep with that guy, and Finn will find out, blah, blah, blah.

The ugly: Oh dear Mrs. Hudson - just because you slept with rock stars doesn't mean you can sing. Talent doesn't get transferred via jizz. And the new guy is Puck's half brother? REALLY? SERIOUSLY? Why not just make him his conjoined twin that was kidnapped by evil wizards at birth?

Re: Glee! [merged]

Oh, and I really miss Mercedes, Santana and Quinn. I hope we get a follow up on Karofsky to see how he's recovering and if he went back to that school full of assholes. Also interested in seeing more development of the romance between Quinn and Teenage Jesus.

Re: Glee! [merged]

where are all the hot pics form the guy s of glee? only just started watching this show and OMFG I am so in love eith the guys. especially FIN. He is so HOTTTTTT. Puck and Mr shoe are hot also can someone PLEASE do some pics for me? tks

Re: Glee! [merged]

I decided to give this another go after the absurdity that was season 3. I still loathe Mr. Schuster because he has no character depth. Good to see Rachel knocked down several pegs but to be fair, her singing was nothing great. I actually have a reason to hate Blaine now instead of dealing with his "too perfect" BS. I'm all for a newer cast but with the spinoff failing, I suspect that the cast will dwindle a fair amount before the season ends.

Re: Glee! [merged]

It was ok, glee is totally going to end up being Degrassi the muscial by the end of the season i feel, the whole thing with marley and her mom is the big lunch lady everyones making fun of, just screamed degrassi to me. lol

That's fine, because the utter shit this show has become can totally benefit from a Degrassi facelift.

Yeah, I found it a bit of a jarring "tonal shift" to the New York segments. I liked them well enough, and it was a bit hard to put my finger on - and obviously the cinematography had a chance to open up for things like the exterior park shots or a little bit of architecture, but I had the slightly odd feeling I was watching a different program though I knew the characters; maybe in the writing, the editing, but it just felt like a different production sandwiched in. So I can understand completely why you surmised it might've been meant to have been a spin-off that didn't sell. The one thing they had on their side was that it was supposed to be an adventure away from the life they knew, so the slight disorientation almost works in a way since you'd expect the characters to be going through that, but I was hoping that maybe as the season progresses it'll sandwich better into the show's overall fabric instead of standing out.

Re: Glee! [merged]

I didn't think it was possible but I hate Mr. Shue more than Blaine. BTW Lea, pouting isn't sexy. I just hope Kurt and Rachel don't go RENT in an episode. I saw that disheveled loft and the stupid ♥Finn painted on the wall.

I dont like them either. i can not stand that new cheerleader..aka a rip off of Quinn. These new characters are just the red headed step children of the kids that graduated. I really think the show will end after this season.

That bitch is worse than Quinn. At least Quinn was somewhat likeable. The "new Quinn" just makes me want to punch her in the tits.

Re: Glee! [merged]

Just a list of thoughts.

1. I remember those coffee cups from The Devil Wears Prada. Nice try Murphy. +1 pink star on my gay card for that.
2. Why do the NY scenes feel like a crappy version of Ugly Betty? Even the Vogue Vault looks like a crappy ripoff of the one at Mode.
3. Was totally expecting Blaine to go pervy and feel up Sam during the song. We know Blaine is craving some boycunt.
4. Mr. Scheuster actually had character development. Holy shit!!!
5. Sarah Jessica Parker is horrible at lip syncing.
6. Brody was totally wearing Ginch Gonch underwear. Straight? Yeah, I don't think so. The running montage was "interesting".
7. Totally saw the Finn walking in a mile away: cliche plot lines are like that.

I'm sure the typical reviewers just swoon over the songs and bypass the nuances that come with a plot.

Re: Glee! [merged]

Nice episode this week, especially SJP's shout out to her Annie days. At least they didn't make her character a Miranda Preistly-type bitch. There's enough bitch from Kate Hudson to give everyone a taste of the bitch pudding. BLAM!.

Even Stevie Wonder could have seen the whole "Finn walks in" thing coming.

Blaine sang "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" well, but it was the wrong tone for the story. It's about fear of the misuse of nuclear technology, not actually "ruling" anything.

Even ignoring the scenery, I just picture Kurt becoming Ugly Betty personality wise and SJP is "Daniel" w/o the playboy streak as someone way in over their head and Kurt bailing her out. If Rebecca Romijn guest stars as a tranny, well that will answer my conjectures.

Re: Glee! [merged]

I'm loving this season, that's all I can say.

Oh and besides the fact that Puck travelling all the way from L.A. to Lima Ohio just to give a 3 minute pep talk to his half brother that he had never seen before was very ridiculous and cheesy (well aren't most Glee things?) I loved it all about this last episode.

I'm with you, I'm loving this season too.
I even like the new characters Marley, Jake and Brody who's smoking hot.

Re: Glee! [merged]

Dear God so much crying in this episode. I will say, this is a much better season after the travesty that was the third season.

- Still don't care for the high school BS.

- Discrete homophobia. Kurt and Blaine weren't touching in the bed yet Rachel and Finn were. I guess they reached the gay quota quickly with the kiss and for extra measure, through in the teabagging crap

- Glad they all broke up. Life moves on with or without people.

- I will take exception to Emma. Bitch doesn't wanna leave because she loves her job? Please. My hag had to uproot herself to Pittsburgh so her fiancee could go to grad school there. That's what love is Emma. Stop being a selfish twat.

- Now we just need Kurt to self-destruct by getting involved with drugs and going to circuit parties in NYC, subsequently be fired in high drama fashion literally and some how end up soliciting guilt from Blaine because "he did this to Kurt". Finn will come to the rescue despite being known as the fuck up and help Kurt get back on his feet which Rachel will see while dating Brody. Course while Finn is helping Kurt, Rachel will see those endearing qualities that attracted her to Finn to begin with and want him back. I suspect Britney will get together with Sam and piss off Santana for realz.

- Some hardcore Gleek will have to fill me on who the fuck the guy Blaine texted was.

Re: Glee! [merged]

I think Maxpower has hit the nail on it's head, but to be honest, i wouldn't mind it if Sam gave Blaine some comfort after breaking up, which then leads to some steamy times which then leads to sam being all in denial and angry (a tad like Dave Karofsky did) but as long as we see some steam

Re: Glee! [merged]

Once you remove the heavily edited singing [someone said last nite that Blaine's teenage dream cover was amazing. All I heard was a heavily spliced track that made it sound out of sync. The vocals did not even come close to matching the piano at one point. Teenie boppers wouldn't be able to figure that out.], the show should essentially be a soap opera. Soap Oprah writing is quite easy if you have established characters with personas. Then you get a revolving door of guest stars to mix up the plot. I don't even have an English degree or any solid experience in writing but I know a story should work and can recognize a bad one.
